摘要

CDK2 is a principal mediator of CDK4/6 resistance. Concurrent CDK2/4/6 blockade may be effective in treating HR-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer (ABC). This randomized, double-blind, parallel-controlled, phase 3 trial (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT05375461) assessed the efficacy of culmerciclib, a CDK2/4/6 inhibitor, plus fulvestrant in ABC. Patients with HR-positive, HER2-negative, locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer were randomized (2:1) to receive culmerciclib plus fulvestrant or matching placebo plus fulvestrant. Between March 18, 2022 and March 3, 2023, 293 pretreated patients (median age 53.0 years; pre- or perimenopausal 42.3%; bone metastasis 65.2%) were randomized to assigned treatments. At this prespecified interim analysis, culmerciclib plus fulvestrant extended the median investigator-assessed progression-free survival (PFS) significantly, the primary endpoint, as compared with placebo plus fulvestrant (16.6 months, 95% CI 13.8 to not evaluable versus 7.5 months, 95% CI 5.3 to 11.0; hazard ratio 0.36, 95% CI 0.26–0.51; stratified log rank test P < 0.001). Consistent effects were observed across diverse subgroups of patients. At a median follow-up duration of 13.8 months, overall survival was immature. The investigators-assessed objective response rate was 40.2% (95% CI, 33.3–47.5) for culmerciclib compared to 12.1% (95% CI 6.4–20.2) for placebo (stratified Mantel-Haenszel χ2 test P < 0.001). Diarrhea (87.1%) and neutropenia (80.4%) were the most common toxicities with culmerciclib plus fulvestrant. In conclusion, this randomized clinical trial met its primary outcome. Culmerciclib plus fulvestrant is well tolerated and leads to a significant gain in PFS of pretreated HR-positive HER2-negative ABC patients.
